Insurance provider
Paid premiums to Hiscox for years without any issues. When I finally needed to make a legitimate claim, they found every possible reason to reduce the payout. The process took three months, involved multiple assessors, and the final settlement was far less than the replacement value. Very disappointing.
Pros: Premiums are collected efficiently
Cons: Adversarial claims process, undervalued settlements
Setting up life insurance with Hiscox was easier than I expected. The underwriting process was transparent, the medical screening was simple, and the policy was issued quickly. The price was very competitive for my age and health profile. Gives my family peace of mind.
Pros: Easy setup, transparent underwriting, competitive pricing
Cons: Limited online self-service options
Insured with Hiscox for five years across motor and home policies. Premiums have been reasonable, and the one claim I made was handled professionally. The online quote system is straightforward and the documentation is clear. Auto-renewal means I never worry about gaps in coverage.
Pros: Fair pricing, professional claims handling, clear docs
Cons: Auto-renewal price can creep up if you don't check
I compared dozens of quotes and Hiscox offered the best balance of coverage and price. The policy wording is clear about what's included and excluded, which I appreciate. Haven't had to claim yet but the reviews from others who have give me confidence. Easy to recommend.
Pros: Competitive pricing, clear policy wording, good coverage
Cons: Haven't tested claims process yet
I never thought I'd be enthusiastic about an insurance company but Hiscox exceeded all expectations. When I needed to make a claim after a burglary, the process was smooth, the assessor was fair, and the payout was processed within 10 days. Communication throughout was excellent. That's exactly what you pay insurance for.
Pros: Fast claims processing, fair assessment, great communication
Cons: Premium is slightly above average
